the Step Size (uu) box.
Position Trapezoid performs a trapezoidal move. The total distance of
the move is entered in the Move Distance (uu) box. When the move is
performed the demanded motor speed will increase at the rate entered
in the Acceleration box until the Slew Speed is reached. Towards the
end of the move, the demanded motor speed will decrease at the rate
entered in the Deceleration box.
